I loved how halfway through his sermon he went ‘I know you two want to get married but let me say this real quick...’.
I’m going by how she identifies herself.. from my experience, folks of black & white parentage who find intellectual & technical exercises to avoid a black identity, usually want to wave bye-bye. I think its their right, i just wish we’d let them go.
If you are African American all your “Blackity-Black moments” are being performed in the heart of an institution/structure which enforced white superiority, imperialism and even gave its blessing to those who enslaved your ancestors.
But by her own account she isn’t black, she insist that she’s proudly biracial. Why do so many of us want to force blackness on her? Why seek the embrace of those who do not want to extend it?
At the risk of sounding like an ass... lol... I do connect with some animals or rather they connect with me. But, I don’t at all reach out to them unless they initiate physical contact. I grew up on a farm around lots of different animals. I have a healthy respect for teeth. ;)
Me thinks Becky might of been partaking in certain illicit substances before this altercation. Just a guess.
“Woof”
Obviously a white guy wrote that message. Sheesh. As if we would ever say “nigger cock” to another black person.
I watched the video earlier and I swear when the cops asked why the dog, she said “because dogs are aMAAAAAAAAYZing!!!!!!”. So it does not surprise me in the least that she tried to crawl into someone’s car because she had a connection with a dog she’d never seen before.
Every time racism really starts to wear me down, I hear something come up out of this community to give me the strength to keep going, and “Becky with the Bold Hands” is that little bit of life that’s gonna get me into the weekend
Because excess is a thing, and I think everyone who has a registry winds up putting stuff on their registry that they go “naaah, no one will get this”, or they double up on something, or they just add stuff to add it.
My thing is, like...you’re spending money regardless, right? So if I throw up an Amazon wishlist with a bunch of shit I don’t need and won’t use, it’s fine, but if I ask for money so I can buy stuff I actually need or so I can save it or whatever, it’s off-putting?
This is really sad and I hope whoever stole that quilt got a really bad kidney infection that turned septic.
One of my aunts actually got a crocheted quilt from her aunt when she got married. It was elaborate and gorgeous a California king it took a year to make. My aunt kept it on her bed year round she always made her bed and put it on because she loved it so much. The house that my aunt lived in got robbed a few years…
I hope she at least has a decent relationship with her soon-to-be father-in-law. When I got married, my mom walked me down the aisle. My dad is dead, and at first she didn’t want to do it— she wanted me to be traditional and have a male relative walk me. But I thought that was dumb, I felt like my mom being there…
Her father’s grown children are so tacky. She’s many years younger than them, she grew up basically an only child since they were much older and they are half siblings and lived with another parent and not in her household. They are butthurt because she in their minds was not supposed to do anything with her life. She…
I mean calling someone “Store Brand Dwayne Johnson” is essentially the nicest thing I could ever say about a dude who wasn’t Dwayne Johnson.
This! I never got why everyone was so upset about Charles philandering when Diana stepped out just as often as far as we can tell. They basically had an open marriage where they hated each other.
I think walking part of the way on her own and then being escorted into the home stretch by her husband’s father is a symbolic gesture (if you buy into the traditional notion that a father figure has to “give the bride away”). It highlights her dad’s absence, and symbolically has Charles say “Okay, we got it from…
